This change to single decimal on the timing sheets is ridiculous. It adds absolutely nothing and does not provide clear information about whether a car is improving per lap.
I have created a petition to return to 3 decimal places like it has been for over 20 years.
Please share and sign to put a stop to this idiocracy.
My post on the F1 Reddit got removed so perhaps someone else can share this on Reddit.
I acttually like 2 decimal places for race timing and 3 for qualifiers. Improvements in the race are measured in 10ths of a second, so a further decimal place gives you all you need. For qualifiers you get as much precision as you can.
In any case, one decimal place is stupid and should be improved.
I agree with your arguement, but think 1 decimal is fine and make the list more glanceable. Looking at 100ths going up and down “arbitaraily” is not giving me info. If I want to follow a head to head more in detail I need more info like Multiviewers race trace.
